Hello! For a few weeks now I've been seeing new users who don't validate their account. I thought it was just spammers. In fact, one user contacted me because he couldn't validate his account: When he clicked on the link in the email he was taken to the /register/?do=validating page with a "Your account does not require validation" message. Whatever they do, they are redirected to this page. I've tried to create a test account and I'm having the same problem. I don't think I've done anything in particular and I have no log of error. My version is up to date (4.7.15). Just an updated theme and a few plugins. Do you have any ideas? Thanks!

Hi, We have begun experiencing the same issue as detailed here: We're on cloud-hosted Invision Community 4.7.16. New users trying to validate via the link in the email see a page like in the attachment: Is there anything we can do to solve? regards David

Sorry if this has been answered already, but I'm trying to change the language on the page that loads when someone clicks "Forgot password" and enters their email address. Does anyone know where you can update that language?

Hi Its that time of year that i have to go through the pains of Facebook reviews, sorted the testing of the app. This new one i am not sure i can complete as my forum is not a business and don't have a verified business to link to Data Use Checkup This annual checkup now requires that you connect apps to a verified business and answer data handling questions. What do i need to do to stop my app from being suspended ? to be honest i am getting fedup with jumping through hoops with Facebook and may well disable it. If its easy to sort out i will continue but if not is there a way to convert my facebook users to normal logins …

This is something very annoying. If I upload a new version, screenshots do not respect the order I set in the form. All customization is disabled; no 3rd-party app/plugin is running, as you can see in the video.

Trying to send a test email of a heavily formatted HTML email. I do not get an error message but I can not see that anything was sent. Looks like the system just ignored it. When I re-tested with a very simple email everything worked. Is there a formatting limitation that must be followed?

There is an "easy way" to acknowledge who is the anonymous original poster. How to replicate: Go to the post, view who is following (1) and see who has followed the post (2) the same time it is posted (3): This is a massive flaw in our members privacy compliance. We already put an internal patch: inactivated the modal button when the OP is anonymous. Can you please check on this ? Thanks

I've been using Sendgrid for the last few years but its really overkill for my needs so tonight I switched email settings to Invision Community in the Cloud Uses Invision Community servers to send emails. The test email came from noreply@invisioncloudcommunity.com so I sent a bulkmail to my members but for some reason it's been sent via sendgrid and not invisioncloudcommunity.com What did I do wrong ?

Hi All, I'm sure this is an easy fix and I just need to rebuild images, but some of the thumbs on my site are blurry; https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/472901-my-e90-bmw-330i/page/5/#comment-7899665 If you click through to the main image it is nice and crisp. Maybe this is because thumbnail size may have been increased a few years ago? Thanks

Made the last update to 4.7.16 a few days ago and all seems to work fine, but users complain about firefox and the activity streams. Using "All Acitivity" you click on a thread, read it in the same tab and go back to "All Activity" - with firefox all looks the same, the thread is still bold, but with safari it's narrow. Using "Unread Content" the same way - with firefox all looks the same, but with safari it's gone. Funny about that is using firefox here at ivisioncommunity.com it works as it should. Same as safari does. We have MySQL still at 5.7 and PHP still at 8.0, but i don't think that makes any difference. A Redis Cache could maybe, but i don't kno…
